    Default Ta muchly Felders & this Forum

    Ta muchly Felders & this Forum. Long may you bloom and grow and your patina grow deeper. I won the Japanese saws today, in case anyone was wondering what i was going on about. Dance, dance, leap into a grand jete. (translates into shuffle around me walking stick, get dizzy and sit down). Thanks

    With total sincerity, :) the same I would use if selling a teenage son's car described as "one owner, little old lady, only used to drive to Church", :cool: I congratulate you.
    Course it means I have to buy them from Felder, now :(
    May your cuts be straight and true.
    Enjoy.

    ............ and humph from me too. I was hoping the winner would, at least, come from Australia. Do these tools come with picture book instructions?

    lol love reading those comments ...
    ... that brings up a valid question tho.... if a winner actually IS from overseas whould they have to pay shipping costs? Seems to me a bit unfair if whoever is generous to donate a price would have to pay that too..... I have grandchildren there and know how expensive posting anything can get.

    No the winner must pay shipping if he is overseas, or he can donate them to whoever he wants in Yanchep/Perth/W.A:D

    Thanks Cliff :-) Shame about the others missing out though, smirk, snigger and neener, neener.

    Anyway, just think with all the temperature change, then the mainland will be too hot too live, the sea levels will rise and flood most of the mainland, leaving a a few bits where you can burrow. Nice people, like Cliff, for instance, will be allowed to come and live in Tasmania and use the electricity generated by our hydro electric scheme which will, unfortunately, have no water in its storages due to the climate change - but who could have seen that happening, cough!

    There will be no politicians in Tasmania as they will have been eaten as food. After they have been puked up as food poisoning they will be used to drug fish. Unfortunately all the fish stocks would have been depleted even more by the excess fresh water entering the salt water oceans and seas.

    Mean time, Cliff will be over here and we will be enjoying a meal with him.

    After we have eaten him i will use the bones to make furniture and cut those bones up with my brand new fine Japanese hand saws.

    It would would seem most appropriate to cut his hands off first - but respectfully, of course.

    Oh we won't be able to use the tools on wood as the vicious and voracious bush fires would have destroyed all the vegetation.

    Happy days ahead, hey?

    This will all happen after my grandchildren have passed on without having children. (i wouldn't want this tale to be too gloomy now, would i?). :D

    P.S. If there is one thing i like, it's reading the ages of some of you. It's wonderful. Some of you are really, really old, ancient and battered.

    It's like being close to an old huon pine and thinking, Gee, that has been there since time began.

    Tell you what though, the distance between 57 and 76 seems like nothing at all - age at this time seems ageless for us oldies, but infinitely young for the those teens and twenties who feel like they will live forever but who don't know the treasure that awaits being ageless.

    PPS Please tell me how to get paras.

    If that's what I've got to look forward to at 57, I may as well shoot myself now.
